Let's all toke one up for the mon! Born on February 6th, 1945, today would've been Marley's 61st birthday. I found this really awesome eHow on "How to celebrate Bob Marley's birthday" It's pretty nifty, I'll just repost it here since it's pretty short. Link is here if you want to check it out for yourself: http://www.ehow.com/how_13454_celebrate-bob-marleys.html

Bob Marley, born February 6, 1945, is internationally recognized as the Godfather of reggae. While he did not invent this timeless form, he became reggae's seminal figure. Kick back, mon, and relax to the sounds of reggae in celebration of Marley's birthday.

Steps:
1. Take a trip to your local library to do some reading about the man revered by Bob Marley and all other Rastafarians: Haile Selassie, former Emperor of Ethiopia.

2. Book a trip to the Caribbean paradise of Jamaica, Marley's home and birthplace.

3. Play Bob's debut release track, "Judge Not," as a tribute to the beginning of his prosperous and uplifting career.

4. Take a stab at reading the palms of your friends and family. Prior to becoming a singer and musician, Marley was a well-known local palm reader.

5. Purchase hemp-manufactured clothing in celebration of the herb that inspired Bob throughout his life.

6. Pop open a Red Stripe, Jamaica's favorite beer, in tribute to Marley's homeland.

Tips:
In recognition of the legend, make a donation to the American Cancer Society, which collects funds to help in the fight against all forms of cancer. Bob Marley died of melanoma in 1981.

Warnings:
Be mindful of negative feelings while you celebrate Marley's birthday. He, like all true Rastafarians, preached a peaceful world order with brotherhood and sisterhood between all people.
